No OIS and poor body
Phone owned for less than 3 months

Used this device and found signal reception is ok, build is weak and no OIS make this phone overpriced for me.
at this price many phone comes with OIS and stability, also heating issue is different level, poor thermal management.
Else for daily usage this phone is good.

Negative is overpriced
heating
camera hype is there. (hasselblad)
